Also over at the FileFront this evening is a review on People Can Fly's Painkiller expansion pack, Battle out of Hell. Walking away with 3/5 stars, this one sounds decent enough. Snip:

Aside from the monotony, there are some good surprises in the gameplay and levels here and there, including a roller coaster in the theme-park. As you get through the levels, however, things just keep getting bigger and bigger, which is kind of what Painkiller prides itself on. One of the main reasons that people really enjoyed the game was because they were able to face bosses that were literally twenty to thirty times their size in the game. It was impressive the way the Painkiller engine handled monsters of such size. This trend continues in the expansion, and makes good use of size in a few of the levels.
